It is 1862 and you have arrived in Dallas, Texas. You just couldnât stand New England and its big crowded cities and bitter cold winters. Sometimes you didnât even have enough money and food to keep going on. One day you decided to sell your store and move to the Old West to make something of yourself. You didnât know what; you just wanted to be something. When you finally got to Dallas it finally hit you! You said,â Forget being a store keeper, I want to fight!â Which means to you that you could be one of two things an Outlaw or a Sheriff, but first you would have to prove it to the people. Would you be the Sheriff protecting the citizens, cleaning the streets of evil, or would you be the Outlaw striking fear and hate into the people? It all begins here. All you brought with you is what you packed and that is $200.00 dollars, the clothes youâre wearing, and a Map of Texas.
The nickname is not mandatory.

Reputation is very simple; basically if you want to be a Sheriff you need your Rep to have a positive Rep. If you want to be an Outlaw you want your Rep to be negative. You can raise it or lower it by doing certain good/bad deeds. There is also going to be a neutral deed sometimes. The neutral deed gives you neither positive/negative Rep. You can change from being an Outlaw to a Sheriff or a Sheriff to an Outlaw at anytime by lowering/raising your Reputation.
* You will have to overcome your bad trait and then you can change it to a good trait.
Hope you like it. This is my first one.

Name: John "Fast Hand" Smith
Age: 20
Appearance: Average build, somewhat tall, short brown hair, black eyes, scar on left cheek.
Bio: John thought what he always wanted to have was a business of his own. When his small shop, though, proved unable to be an adequate source of income, he was forced to abandon that dream, and look for a brighter future elsewhere. And that place would be Texas, since he also has some family there, who he hasn't gotten the chance to speak to for years.

The shopkeeper laughs and says,"Borrow? hahaha! That's a good one. You need money to "borrow" something from here!"Unless you misread what I said, I say "No, my good sir, I said "browse".".
By the way, you seem to have forgotten to lower hunger or stamina from either of us. I can understand that you might want to lower it in a certain number of posts, but it's page 5, even though, if you're bored of constantly having to change it, I would have no objection to its immediate removal.

The Shopkeeper says,"Oh, sorry about that. I have a hearing problem and sometimes I get some words mixed up. So, what do you need?"
Sorry about not keeping it more real, I really just want to start you out and then worry about the stats. I'll do it from now on. Thanks for the reminder.

The Barkeeper says,"I might know a thing or two about 'Shank'; although it's going to cost you."
You could be kind and pay him ten dollars or you could show him that you weren't even going to pay for the drink by fighting him.

I say "Well, I have nothing in specific in mind. What kind of small handguns do you have?"
Sorry about not keeping it more real, I really just want to start you out and then worry about the stats. I'll do it from now on. Thanks for the reminder.I was actually hoping for them to stay that way. But I went asking for it .

The Shopkeeper says," I just gave my best gun away to another new guy in town. Let me check the back." The Shopkeeper goes to the back of the shop and comes back with one pistol and one rifle. The Shopkeeper says,"I got a M1873 Fast Draw Pistol and a M1873 Western Rifle. The rifle is more accurate and causes more damage, but the pistol is fast, and a quick reloader. The rifle only can hold three bullets at a time and the pistol can only hold six at a time."
After every two posts from me, I will change your guy's stats to go lower unless you do the thing that you need to do to raise it.

The Shopkeeper says,"The M1873 Fast Draw Pistol is $45.00 with a normal amount of ammo; which is 42 bullets it's about $55.00 dollars.The M1873 Western Rifle is $52.00 with a normal amount of ammo; which is 45 bullets it's about $60.00."
Remember your traits since you have Presuasive you can bargain with him.
You could:
A) Threaten him for a lower price.
B) You could get to know him better and get a lower price.

The Barkeeper says," Barton 'Shank' Williams used to be the Sheriff of Dallas. He was one of the best we had; he was never afraid of anything. He captured up to one-hundred outlaws that whole time he was Sheriff. Although one day people said he was tracking down a fierce outlaw named Clintion "One Shot" Crawford, well aparently while Barton was about to kill Crawford he was surrounded by Crawford's gang members. Barton was able to kill most of them, but it was just a distraction for Crawford to get away; luckly Barton quickly followed Crawford until he caught up to him and blew Crawford away with a shotgun round to the head. You might be asking yourself why he turned evil, nobody knows though. People say though that Crawford and Barton are working togather, and hiding in the mountains West of here. Another thing that people are questioning is why there is no description of Barton on the Wanted Poster. I think that Sheriff Winsley has a deal with Barton, telling Winsley to keep his mouth shut. I don't know, but they might be paying him. If I were you I would wait untill sundown when Sheriff Winsley leaves his office and follow him to see what he does." The Barkeeper stops talking to take a shot and says," Since what you are doing is pretty brave of you I'll give you some food for the road." He hands you two biscuts and one piece of jerky.

I choose B, and try to befriend him, in a way. Other than trying to be 'kind and sweet', I also mention that I need the weapon to defend not only myself, but also the town's citizens, considering I feel I owe them, since they have been so very hospitable.

You have gained 3 Rep!
You started talking to the Shopkeeper. You told him about how you need a better deal, so you joked, laughed, and talked and finally he said he would drop the price by ten dollars. The Shopkeeper says,"Ok I'll drop the prices the M1873 Fast Draw Pistol is $35.00 with a normal amount of ammo; which is 42 bullets it's about $45.00 dollars.The M1873 Western Rifle is $42.00 with a normal amount of ammo; which is 45 bullets it's about $50.00. How's that for a deal?"

You wait two long hours until Sheriff Winsley comes out of his office through the back door. He starts walking out of the town and into the desert; you follow him. About three miles from town he stops and it seems like he is going to meet someone. You hide yourself by a large amount of tumbleweed and brush. You wait about ten minutes when you see someone walk over to Winsley and starts talking to him. The Sheriff Winsley says," I did what you asked." The strange man replies," Not so loud! Did you see anyone following you?" Winsley," Replies I made sure that no one followed me." The man says," Ok, this is what we are going to do. One of our memebers is going to stage a murder about the bank owner Larkin Campbell. Once we stage the murder you will come in and tell Larkin that there is heavy evidence against him and he will be thrown in jail for amount of time we will need to rob the bank." Winsley says," Who are we going to kill?" The man says," You are not going to do the killing, we are. Although we need someone that nobody knows or cares about. Like someone who is just a nobody. Have any ideas?" Winsley says," I know, we can kill Culver Locke, the greater at the train station. He never talks to anyone, well besides the new people, but he only talks to the for a couple of minutes." The man says," That will do." Winsley says," When will it take place?" The man says," Tomorrow, when the sun rises we will stage the murder. Then when the at dusk you will arrest Larkin. Then at nightfall we will break in." Winsley says," Goodbye." Then starts walking to town. The man mounts a horse he was riding and rides off.

I say "Oh, I would really appreciate that discount! I'll have the M1873 Fast Draw Pistol and 42 bullets for it." and after the purchase has finished, I go to the Dry Foods General Store to get some supplies for later.
